Hi, I am trying to make an installer that has checkboxes to let you add shortcuts to the desktop and quick launch bar. I was able to get that working well except for one small part. Right now on the initial install if you check the box you'll get the shortcut and if you don't you wont. That is the case on the upgrade too. But when upgrading, I want the box to be checked by default if the user has the shortcut there already, and unchecked otherwise. I've been having trouble getting that to work. I've tried making the shortcuts in components in the main feature or in features in the main feature, adn then checking if the feature/component is installed by making a condition with something like &featName or $compName, (checking the install state and the action state). nothing seems to work. It seems like common functionality in most installers so I feel like I'm missing something.
Oh, and the one other thing is that I can't use the registry. If anyone could help me that would be great. Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/need-to-create-desktop-shortcuts-and-remember-i-created-them-tp5458890p5458890.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sell apps to millions through the Intel(R) Atom(Tm) Developer Program Be part of this innovative community and reach millions of netbook users worldwide.
